Nowadays,Tokio 2020 Olimpic Games are showing the greatest athletes.For me when this competition is coming,I looking forward to seeing the running time.Ten years ago (give or take),I started to go running and It's fair to point out that now it is my passion.Running,I have spent and spend amazing situations and unforgettable feelings with this pastime and with my partners runners (especially with my best friend Ivan).For that reason,I love this discipline sport and what’s more it is so great that it is doesn’t matter your age,your speed,your beliefs or your social position because all of runners have the same possibilities to win.Chariots of fire is a clear and absolute example of this wonderful sport without a doubt whatsoever.
Chariots of Fire is a British drama film.It was directed by Hugh Hudson,Ben Cross and Ian Charleson in 1981.This historical film is based on a real story and its title is adapted into a William Blake’s poem that there is a famous line ‘Bring me my Chariot of fire’.Regard its recognition,it was nominated for seven Academy awards,getting four of them,but its most relevant and well known point is its electronic theme tune by Vangelis,in my view it is an authentic jewel.
Paris 1924 Olimpic Games,the glory is waiting for other athletes,but the way of the success wouldn’t be a pice of cake.5 years before,Harold Abrahams (Ben Cross) studies at the Cambridge University,there,despite he goes through negative experience due to the fact he is jaw,he loves this place and enjoys running competitions at the university.Eric Liddle (Ian Charlesson) is a Chinese missionary and famous runner who is looking for his competitive pursue in order to glorifying God.After years of hard training,they are selected to represent Great Britain to France for the Olympics.Both,with radical life experiences,but with the same goal,getting the gold medal….in their honour.
The performances and the script are no doubt the tip of the iceberg,but I’d highly recommend this movie for its priceless life lesson : our perseverance is the maker of change and the greatest of our lives equates to our faith in ourselves and our dreams….
They will sacrifice anything to achieve their goals…except their honor.
